The fifth area was a city compared to Resolution Road, but was lit up like vegas and had lots of lights all over it.
"Wow. Modernization hit this part of Dreamland hard. I hardly even recognize it anymore." Tsuchigumo said.
"Yeah, didn't think you would, stupid spider." said a voice.
"Great. Him." Tsuchigumo said looking up to see a man with a frog tongue like ponytail and a pale face. "Ogama. I thought you'd be frogs legs by now."
"Please, its gonna take more than this to get me, web head." Ogama said.
"Alright, we finally found you!" Hope said. "Listen, the Kaima are after you and we need to get you to safety. But first… we need to shut down Haltmann's operations here."
"Cute. Little kid thinks he's a hero." Ogama said belittling Hope. "No worries, I'll protect you from the big scary robots."
"Thats enough from you!" Jexi said going up to him. "What makes a frog like you think you can bully my-"
"Aw, the other kid thinks he's a hero too. No worries. I'll protect all of…" Ogama said before looking at Naruto. "The ninja kid. I know you. Jiraiya told me all about you last time we met."
"Jiraiya? One of the three Legendary Sannin? He trained this kid?" Tsuchigumo said.
"Yeah. Jiraiya and I were friends till the day he croaked. He told me all about you." Ogama said approaching Naruto. "You followed him, became gutsy, and mastered Sage Mode. Not alot of people can do that."
"Yeah. I'll admit that the training was hard, but the pervy sage was with me all the way." Naruto said.
"Hmm. He always did see you as a favorite." Ogama said before leaving a medal in Naruto's hands. "Consider it a present. In remembrance of him." Ogama said leaping off.
"NO! Ogama gone?" said a voice as Gokai dropped down. "You...you chase of Gokai's prey. Now Gokai mad!" he said pounding his fists into the ground.
"Gokai, another one of the Kaima executives. Born from Ubaune's Malice with power over...uh what is your power?" Hope asked.
"Gokai no tell till the right time." Gokai said. "Powers distributed by Ubaune herself and….ah! Gokai called Lady Ubaune just plain Ubaune."
"Uh-oh…" Hope said putting in earplugs.
"No worries. I make up for it! You up next buddy!" Gokai said as a mud creature with one eye rose up. "Dorotabo Kai!"
"Dorotabo. A classic Yo-kai born from the anger of a deceased farmer who died in the rice paddies." Fuyunyan said.
"If hes made of mud, it's gonna be impossible to purify him." Erica said.
"Go and get them. Gokai go wait at company building." Gokai said leaping away.
Dorotabo stared at them.
"Fuyunyan, youre the purification expert, how do we help him?" Hope asked.
"A purity circle around his body as well as an incantation. That should be enough to fix him." Fuyunyan said.
"A circle? From what?"
"From what had caused his original demise...rice." Fuyunyan said. "Its a common method used by rice farmers to keep his grudge away."
"How are we supposed to have rice on us?" Hope asked before seeing Sanji with a few bags of it. "Where the heck did you get rice?"
"I was saving it for our dinner, but if this is gonna stop the mud man…." Sanji said opening a bag and surrounding Dorotabo with a circle of it.
Fuyunyan then recited the incantation as Dorotabo screamed before out of him came the Kaima inspiriting him.
"Kirby!" Hope said as Kirby sucked it up.
"Urgh, I don't feel good." Dorotabo said coughing up some mud as well as his medal. "I'm going back to the rice fields." he added as he moved on.
"Alright. Now we have the two Yo-kai Gokai had." Hope said. "And from the specs, his attribute is Earth."
"That was already obvious given he's made of mud." Kanji said.
"Guess all that's left is to deal with Gokai as well as the Haltmann Works Company." Kat said.
"Yeah. But first, shutting down the pylon in this place takes top priority." Tails said.
"Lets not waste any more time. I'll show that frog whos a kid." Hope said running into the pylon. There he saw Susie rising from the floor singing the exact same theme.
We Implore you, Dear Haltmann
We Implore you, Dear Haltmann
Bless
Our Work
And be at ease!
"You have some serious issues, lady." Hope said.
"Oh, you all made it. I must say I am impressed. You all reduced our Mecha Knight to nothing but scrap metal. So, we had Reuniclus make up this little beauty." Susie said holding a capsule with a purple slime like ball inside. "He's ruthless, he's savage. He's… clone of royal proportions."
"You cloned Dedede, didnt you?" Pit asked.
"Yes. And it appears...he has a grudge against the pink puffball." Susie said as the purple ball reacted when pointed to Kirby's direction. Susie then tossed the capsule up as it broke.
"Get ready for...Model D-DD3D….Dedede Clone!" Susie said.
The ball then took on the form of a purple Dedede who landed on the ground and glared right at Kirby.
"A clone of Dedede, made of self replicating Nanotech, impressive." Sci-Twi said.
"Ah, so you are impressed with my work." said a voice as they saw a large cell mass with arms looking down from an observation deck. "Well, it is a big project of mine."
"You're Reuniclus right?" Hope asked.
"Yes. Leader and Head Scientist of Steel Genius. Now, please fight my creation. I wanna see how well he does in the field." Reuniclus said.
The dedede clone dashed and attacked the oncoming heroes with various weapons and tools.
"I have an idea. If its made up of nano bots, then we just have to disrupt it with a pulse of some kind." Tails said.
"A pulse? Oh and then I suppose you want to hit it with rocks?" Reuniclus said. "My creation has been tested against pulses, so you can rule that out. In fact, Dedede Clone….subdivide!"
The Dedede Clone the split into three puddles and out of each of them came a Dedede.
"Face it, you cant beat my creation. Its… perfect. The perfect Nano Warrior!" Reuniclus said.
As they reached the rooftops, the three Dedede's jumped into a cannon of sorts and prepared to open fire upon them.
"I also taught him how to operate a cannon." Reuniclus said.
Kirby gained a face of determination as a bomb was fired at him. Kirby sucked up the bomb and then donned a pointed cap and became Bomb Kirby. Kirby then pulled out a bomb the same size of the one he swallowed and tossed it at the Dedede's, making their cannon explode and sending them flying.
"Huh? Guess there's still a few more bugs to work out." Reuniclus said thinking.
As he was thinking, he was open, prompting hope to grab him.
"Got you! It's over Reuniclus, call off the deal with Haltmann and tell him to cancel-" Hope began before Reuniclus plucked a hair off Hope. "Ow!"
"Perfect. Next sample for the next nano warrior experiment. Hopefully, this one goes better." Reuniclus said using psychic to toss Hope off. "Now I must be going. I have dozens of more experiments to get back to work on." Reuniclus said teleporting away,
"What the heck was with that guy?" Hope said as a few Solosis appeared.
"Please forgive him. Reuniclus doesn't really care about what other lifeforms have to say, all he cares about are the experiments and the results. He absolutely loves his work." Solosis said.
"I dont want him to use that for Haltmann works. A clone of Dedede is one thing, but me… you have to take us straight to Haltmann's main office now!" Hope said.
"We don't technically have to. We don't even like you guys. Besides, you don't need a teleporter. His office is right there." A Solosis said pointing to the main ship the pylons came from.
"Well, guess I know where we're going next then." Hope said.
